The production and the observability of $\Lambda(1520)$, $K^0(892)$ $\Phi$ and $\Delta(1232)$ hadron resonances in central Pb+Pb collisions at 160 AGeV is addressed. The rescattering probabilities of the resonance decay products in the…

The recently-discovered narrow charmonium resonance near 3870 MeV is interpreted as a hadronic molecule whose constituents are the charm mesons D^0 and \bar D^{*0} or \bar D^0 and D^{*0}. Because of an accidental fine-tuning of the molecule…
We introduce the differential and the total decay widths of a resonant (Gamow) state decaying into a continuum of stable states. When the resonance has several decay modes, we introduce the corresponding partial decay widths and branching…
An admixture of 10-20 % of qqqq\bar q components in the Delta(1232) resonance is shown to reduce the well known underprediction for the decay width for Delta(1232)->N gamma decay by about half and that of the corresponding helicity…
Inspired by anomalies which the standard scattering matrix pole-extraction procedures have produced in a mathematically well defined coupled-channel model, we have developed a new method based solely on the assumption of partial-wave…

N and $\Delta$ baryons hold an important place towards understanding the quark dynamics inside hadrons. The hypercentral Constituent Quark Model (hCQM) has been employed in various studies ranging from light to heavy hadrons. In the present…
The 1/N_c expansion of QCD provides a valuable semiquantitative tool to study baryon scattering amplitudes and the short-lived baryon resonances embedded within them. A generalization of methods originally applied in chiral soliton models…
We develop a complex scaling method for describing the resonances of deformed nuclei and present a theoretical formalism for the bound and resonant states on the same footing. With $^{31}$Ne as an illustrated example, we have demonstrated…
Starting from the hypothesis that the X(3872) is a $D\bar D^*$ molecule, we discuss the radiative decays of the X(3872) into $\gamma J/\psi$ and $\gamma\psi'$ from an effective field theory point of view. We show that radiative decays are…

Nonperturbative QCD contributions to the inclusive semileptonic decay of the B meson consist of the dynamic and kinematic components. We calculate the decay width in an approach based on the light-cone expansion and the heavy quark…
